re: #119 Killgore Trout

I have no doubt it’s very unpleasant but I’m not necessarily sold on the torture thing. I agreed that it should be reserved to very special cases but the whole point of these interrogations is to make them as unpleasant as possible. Room temperature, loud music, sleep deprivation and waterboarding should be allowed in cases extreme enough. There is a lot of room for personal opinion on where the “tourture” line is.

My criteria involves inventory of your major body parts at the end of the process. If they’re still attached and in working order, probably not torture.
